“A homecoming is the soldier’s nightly dream, the team’s big day, and the prodigal’s greatest act of courage. And this theme of “home” runs deeply through the Scriptures, mapping out the path of the human heart as we start at home, wander in exile, then finally commence our return. Home. Exile. Return. This is what Christmas is all about.”

From Phil Strout: “Every year, our Vineyard Christmas devotional seems to get better and better – and this year is no exception. The transforming story of Christmas is anchored in the Gospel of John, and I believe this tool of discipleship, encouragement, and evangelism will strengthen our churches through the Advent and Christmas season. God is on the move this season – and this booklet is a great tool for spreading the love of Christ in your town or city.”
